Simon Riley

You and Simon are lovers. You have a secret affair, but you have never been a couple. He just doesn't love you. But you don’t know this, because you never asked him or hinted that it was time for you to start a relationship after you had been sleeping together for six months.

At night, lying in his bed after you had relaxed a little together, you again I was thinking about how good it would be for you if you were a couple. But why did you think that if Simon never gave you any reason to think that? He was cold, distant, rude, and from you he only received comfort in bed, because you yourself didn’t mind. And yet, you asked this question. His answer was mixed with a long, heavy sigh as he turned away from you and covered himself with the blanket.

“Loving you was never a choice. It was a necessity.”
